"US raps Iran on inspections" by Reuters | August 22, 2009
WASHINGTON - Iran is still not fulfilling obligations related to its nuclear activities, despite allowing UN inspectors to visit a reactor and upgraded monitoring at a uranium enrichment plant, a US official said yesterday.
Didn't we JUST GO THROUGH THIS with IRAQ?!!!!!!!
Iran allowed International Atomic Energy Agency officials to inspect the site of the Arak heavy water reactor last week, diplomats said. The agency sought to verify the facility is being used for peaceful purposes only.
The IAEA is due to circulate its latest report on Iran next week. “As far as Iran allowing this improved surveillance and access, Iran is still not in compliance with its IAEA obligations and is not providing what has been called for, and that is full and comprehensive cooperation,’’ the Obama administration official said.They forgot to add "with their balls in Israel's hands."

Even when the IRANIANS do the RIGHT THING they get NO CREDIT and LIES are thrown at us in AmeriKa!
"Iran lifts ban on nuclear inspectors; UN report is due in matter of days" by George Jan, Associated Press | August 21, 2009
VIENNA - Western diplomats said they hoped El Baradei would include unreleased information the agency has gathered on Iran.
Don't you mean "UNSUBSTANTIATED (see below)?"
One senior Western diplomat said that some of that information related to Iran’s so-called “alleged studies’’ into building a nuclear weapon.
“The alleged studies are more than alleged,’’ the diplomat said on condition of anonymity, adding that El Baradei has for years been “overly cautious’’ about his Iran reports.
This is SUCH ZIONIST PROPAGANDA with their "western officials" and "ANONYMOUS SOURCES!"
The United States, Britain, France, and Germany, which are considering new sanctions, are urging the nuclear watchdog to reveal all the information it has that suggests Tehran is pursuing atomic weapons, diplomats said.
Even the ISRAELI-PLANTED LIES!
The nations are planning to hold talks on Iran’s nuclear program next month with Russia and China, on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, Western diplomats say. To make a strong case for more sanctions, diplomats said, the four Western powers have been urging Mohamed El Baradei, the outgoing head of the UN nuclear watchdog, to reveal information he has on Iran that they say could help bring Russia and China around.
Or it is WAR!!!!!!
The agency’s next report is due within two weeks. It is expected to confirm that operations continue to expand - along with Tehran’s potential capacity to produce weapons-grade uranium.
Interesting:
"Iran has... slowed its expansion of machines producing nuclear fuel"
Yeah, I AM SICK of the LIES!!!!!
A June report from the inspectors said nearly 5,000 centrifuges were enriching at Natanz - about 1,000 more than at the time of the last agency report, issued in February - with more than 2,000 others ready to start enriching.
Why do I not believe them, and who cares anyway?
THEY are for POWER, nothing more!!!!
Since its clandestine enrichment efforts were revealed more than six years ago, Iran has steadily increased them, shrugging off three sets of UN sanctions and rejecting talks meant to induce it to mothball the activity.
Of course, ISRAEL THUMBS ITS NOSE for FORTY YEARS AND BUILDS BOMBS but no problem!
Iran is softening its position days before the release of a new report on its facilities from the international watchdog group. It is unclear whether the increased access is an attempt to influence how much unsubstantiated information would be released in the report.
Oh, UNSUBSTANTIATED INFORMATION, huh?
That means they want ZIONIST WAR LIES in the "report!"
DIDN'T WE JUST DO THIS with IRAQ?!!!!!
The diplomats demanded anonymity because their information was confidential.
Now I KNOW they are Jewish.
International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors visited the nearly finished Arak heavy water reactor last week, the diplomats said. They added that Iran agreed last week to agency requests to expand monitoring of the Natanz uranium enrichment site, which produces nuclear fuel that can be further enriched into warhead material.
Yup, "can be" but IS NOT!!!
Iran has lifted a yearlong ban and allowed UN inspectors to visit a nearly completed nuclear reactor and has granted greater monitoring rights at another atomic site, diplomats said yesterday.
Translation: the IRANIANS are doing EVERYTHING THEY CAN to AVOID a WAR!
So HOW WOULD THEY BENEFIT from a "terror event," readers -- and WHO WOULD?!!!!

"Iran inches closer to being able to build nuclear bomb" by Borzou Daragahi, Los Angeles Times | February 20, 2009
Yup, NEVER MIND that they AIN'T MAKING ONE!!!
That: "Iran had stockpiled 1,050 pounds of low-enriched uranium so far.... It would need 3,740 pounds to convert into high-enriched uranium, or HEU, for fueling an atom bomb --source--"
That: "Iran would have to change the way the centrifuges are operating to enrich uranium to high, weapons-grade levels, something that would be difficult since the Natanz facility is under IAEA video surveillance --source--"
That: "specialists question the conclusion by those providing the intelligence... They note that the spent fuel at issue is not enough to yield the approximately 65 pounds of weapons-grade material needed for a bomb. Iran's enrichment program under constant IAEA monitoring has churned out material that is less than 5 percent enriched, in line with the fuel needs of modern reactors --source--"
That: "There are some indications, moreover, that the MEK obtained the documents not from an Iranian source but from Israel's Mossad --source--"
And I haven't even gotten to the article itself yet. Wait until you catch a load of this ingenious propaganda and faux journalism.
TEHRAN - Iran has enough nuclear fuel to build a bomb if it decides to take the drastic steps of violating its international treaty obligations, kicking out inspectors, and further refining its supply, UN officials and arms-control analysts said yesterday.
Who said? I'm tired of could be, if, maybe, but, still, masquerading as 'news" reporting, folks.
Iran has made no such gestures and has slowed its expansion of machines producing nuclear fuel, increasing its production capacity by less than 5 percent over the last three months, according to a report issued yesterday by the International Atomic Energy Agency, or IAEA.
Oh, so they EVEN SLOWED DOWN as they "inch" closer to a BOMB THEY ARE NOT MAKING!!!!
Another IAEA report released yesterday raised suspicions about graphite and uranium particles found at an alleged Syrian nuclear site Israel bombed in 2007.
Yeah, notice how Israel can bomb with impunity and nothing is done?
Oh, and about Syria's ALLEGED nuke site:
"last month, IAEA chief Mohamed ElBaradei told the board meeting that preliminary results from the environmental samples came up with "no indication" to back the claims that the destroyed target was a nuclear facility --source--"
Just remember that Bill Clinton bombed a Sudanese pharmaceutical factory based on "soil samples," readers: "Chemists waded through the rubble, collected soil samples and found not a trace."
Sort of get sick of the AmeriKan MSM's propaganda, don't you?
The reports, the latest updates by the arms-control watchdog of the United Nations, revealed that Iran had amassed 1,010 kilograms of low-enriched or reactor-grade nuclear fuel by late January. Physicists estimate that producing the 25 kilograms or so of highly enriched or weapons-grade uranium to build an atomic warhead requires between 1,000 and 1,700 kilograms of low-enriched or reactor-grade uranium.
As is THEIR LEGAL RIGHT! THEY SIGNED the NPT; "friends" Israel, India, and Pakistan have not.
Iran's increased supply of low-enriched uranium surprised diplomats and arms-control specialists who assumed Iran would need until the end of the year before it would have enough fuel to build a bomb.
You know what they say about assumptions, right? Makes an ass of u and me?
And even if Iran was building a weapon, who could blame them? It is OBVIOUSLY in DEFENSE since the REAL THREAT is BELLICOSE and BELLIGERENT ISRAEL -- which HAS NUCLEAR WEAPONS -- and is likely USING THEM to HOLD the WORLD HOSTAGE!!!! Either give the criminal Zionists what they want, or..... whoooooooosh, BOOM!
One analyst, David Albright of the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security, said he was "blindsided" by the report.
David Albright, huh?
See: The Nuclear Expert Who Never Was
Yeah, I'll bet he was "blindsided."
Senior officials close to the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Association told reporters and arms control experts in a conference call that Iranian officials had told them they had "miscalculated" their stockpile of low-enriched uranium because of a mathematical error, a discrepancy that was cleared up with agency officials in mid-November but never before made public.
Which "senior officials" said what? Pfffffftttt!
Iran steadfastly denies it seeks to build an atomic bomb, which Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says violates principles of Islam. It insists its nuclear program is meant solely to produce energy for its growing population. But the United States, Europe, and Israel suspect that Iran is trying to attain a nuclear weapons capacity.
Well SCREW what THEY SUSPECT!!!! USrael LIES!!!
By crossing the 1,000-kilogram threshold, analysts say Iran has improved its "break-out" capacity, the ability to renege on treaty obligations, boot out inspectors, and quickly build a bomb.
There they go again!!!! Need I remind you NONE of which they have DONE YET -- while ISRAEL has accomplished ALL THREE nd NO PEEP!!!!!!!
Still, said Albright, the uranium stockpile signifies "a capability, not a decision." And even if Iran made such a decision it still faces numerous major hurdles to building a bomb.
Sigh. See why I get angry now.
Yeah, shift the story back to the false charges against Syria why doncaha?
Graphite is often used to build a nuclear reactor, but UN officials could not yet say whether the graphite traces found were nuclear-grade.

When they get that prop machine running they sure are amazing, huh?
